Work

Placide is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans tattoo, painting, and illustration. Known for their intricate blackwork, Placide is not confined to one style, embracing a broad range of artistic expressions.The handcrafted pieces often carry an air of mystery, that blend many influences into striking visual narratives. Drawing inspiration from both the natural and built environments, Placide's designs evoke a sense of gravity, often exploring themes of harmony, structure, and the interplay between light and shadow.Whether working with skin, canvas, or paper, Placide's approach is meticulous, each line and detail thoughtfully crafted to build depth and texture. The work embodies an appreciation for the delicate balance between chaos and order, with geometric patterns and fluid organic forms often converging in a hauntingly beautiful way.Placide's intuition for translating your ideas are deeply rooted in a passion for storytelling and a fascination with the unknown, creating pieces that resonate with those drawn to the side of the human experience that express both the known and the unknowable.

About

Hello, I’m Placide Suspirii, a multidisciplinary artist based in Lyon, France.My designs often emerge from a place of intuition, as I freehand every line into detailed compositions with a sense of depth and shadow. I draw inspiration from my clients imagination, architecture, nature, and the contrasts found in the space between them: the crumbling buildings, the twisting roots of trees, the geometry that underlies both manmade and organic forms often evolving as the work progresses.Each piece I create is a reflection of those hidden images pulled from our subconscious and the secret language of organic forms, the balance between chaos and order, harmony and beauty. I believe that art, especially tattoo art, is a way to tell stories about where we’ve been, where we’re going, and the places in between.I work exclusively with vegan inks and products because I believe in creating art that aligns with my values. It’s important to me that the work I do is not just meaningful visually but also ethical in every way possible.I’m a native French speaker, but I’m also fluent in English, so whether you’re in Lyon or abroad, I’m happy to work with you in whichever language is most comfortable.
Whether it’s a tattoo, a painting, or an illustration, my aim is to leave a lasting impact, not just in the form of art, but through the experience of creating something truly personal and meaningful.If you're drawn to my exploration of an unseen world, I’d love to collaborate with you. Feel free to reach out and let’s discuss your next tattoo or commission.
